Sounds to me like the homeowner prevailed. The goal is to stop the attack, not kill the attacker. He met the goal.

I'm originally from the Beaumont area too although I haven't lived there in almost 30 years. Looks like it isn't too far from LU. That part of town ain't the greatest. Glad the homeowner was able to defend his loved ones.
